• Proposal vs. Takeoff Comparison: Support the estimating team by comparing vendor proposals against project takeoffs as required to identify discrepancies.

Estimating & Pricing Support

• International Team Coordination: Manage the workflow and data pipeline for the remote, India-based pricing department. Ensure they have all necessary information and documentation to fulfill pricing requests efficiently.

Technical Skills & Industry Knowledge

• Commercial Flooring Expertise: Quickly master and utilize fundamental commercial flooring terminology to communicate effectively with both technical estimators and external clients.
